Expressing pleasure over the victory of Mr Ahmed Patel in the Rajya Sabha elections, Congress president Sonia Gandhi thanked the Election Commission for its decision to disqualify votes of two Congress MLAs who showed their ballots to BJP president Amit Shah.
“Thank God for the Election Commission,” Ms Gandhi said on the victory of Mr Patel.
The Congress had yesterday approached the EC to demand the disqualification of votes of the two MLAs who showed their ballot to the BJP president.
In its order, the EC last night declared the votes of the two MLAs invalid, thus providing a shot in the arm to the Congress.
